Quality vs. Quantity is a lie.

Hey Reader,

You’ve probably heard this before.
The endless debate of Quality vs. Quantity.
It’s all over the internet.

The debate is that you have to choose between either or — like they are on the same coin, and you can only pick one side.
This is an issue I’ve had for years.

The general advice is to focus on Quality over Quantity, like Quality is more important.
Yet the reality is:

You can only get Quality through repetition.

Repetition means Quantity.
Meaning: you need to do Quantity before you have Quality.

Recently, I had a breakthrough.
A good old shower thought.

After working this conundrum for years by now,
what if those two actually depend on each other?
Not like two different sides of the coin,
but actually the same side of the equation.

As I’m working through the idea of Excellence, I realized that:

Excellence is not Perfection.

Perfection is a 100% completion — which we can’t achieve.
What we often think of as perfect is not often too low or too high.

Excellence means to strive for greater things.
To get better with time and get a still give 100% per every try.

So the equation for Excellence is this:

Excellence = Quantity × Quality × Time

The more you do, the better you do,
for a long enough time, it is inevitable – you will become successful.
This equation is going to bring you success through striving for Excellence.

It means you continue to grow.

That equation shows that:

Experience (as defined as time doing) will give you the push
that you can do lower quantity with time as you get better.

This equation is the solution to the debate of Quantity vs. Quality. It is both. Not either.

This is the way you will find great success.

  • The No. 1 Misconception about Success in Business

    Hey Reader, I enjoy success. There is something extremely satisfying about winning. For me, success is the biggest motivation to play.

You look like you have it all, but you’ve lost the important things along the way. We all look at business and probably think that the amount of money is the deciding factor of success in business.

    Hey Reader, How often have you heard:“But he did it first!” Many kids justify their actions as reactions.They say, look at the other person… they are so much worse than I am. We see this today with adults, too—when they put blame on others as an excuse for their bad behavior. It makes me sad to see it in the news every day: “I’m not to blame.” “He was already doing it.” “I’m not as bad as he is.” These are all statements of giving back what you’ve received—with the point of escape or…
